This lesson focuses on polygons and their properties. Students begin by classifying and drawing triangles by side length and angle measures. They examine whether it is possible to build a triangle of given side lengths. Next, students examine quadrilaterals including squares, rectangles, rhombuses, trapezoids, and kites. Students differentiate between regular and irregular polygons and recognize polygons with reflectional and rotational symmetry.
